The human heart has hidden treasures, In secret kept, in silence sealed; The thoughts, the hopes, the dreams, the pleasures, Whose charms were broken if revealed.”

12am. Rain poring down my window. Everyone asleep. No noise whatsoever. A brain full of inspiration.

I've wished for a night like this for ever, and I'm not gonna waste it.

Toxic study motivation^^

This is not a game. this is your freaking future. put in the hours, study, and become the best version of yourself. these excuses aren't going to cut it. Those hours you spent on social media? What did they ever get you - other than headaches, low self esteem, dark eye circles. You've always envied people for achieving so much in life, it's your turn. You won't be doing TikTok dances, or making Pinterest boards in the examination hall. You can sleep in the coffin. Stop taking this lightly.
